Mushroom HUNTING is a Big challenge , Get the wrong ones and you could be dead! I never had the skill to know the good ones from the bad ones!!!!!!!!!stinnett1981 said:Went mushroom hunting this weekend. i go every spring here in southern IL. Crawling around in the woods looking closely next to trees in thick brush. Pulled 3 ticks off me when i was done and i was soaked in sweat. Alot harder than sitting in a tree stand and waiting for a deer to shoot! Is that hunting?
I agree whole heartedly on scouting is hunting. I also go moose hunting here in the Bighorn Motns of Wyoming all the time. But since tags are impossible to get, All my moose get shot with a Digital camera!TheBlueEyedBear said:The good thing about hunting is that you can do it any time, any place and for any animal. Just be sure you are not carrying a weapon. A lot of people call this scouting.
Shooting on the other hand requires that you follow the seasonal rules, with the appropriate weapons and stay withing the limits of animals you can take. And of course, with the appropriate licenses. If you break any of these rules you may find yourself shopping for a new vehicle, a new gun and a new place to live because this will not make the wife happy that you forfeited these items because you didn't purchase the appropriate tags.
